I got it installed on Saturday for $75 and this thing is great! The navigation on it is really accurate and the gps picks up in like 8 seconds when I start my AC, and the antenna is hidden behind the screen.The touch screen responds really well and it's smooth when you're scrolling through the songs. I don't like how when you're on the radio and then when you click navi, the sound stops for like 1-2 seconds but picks right back up. But it doesn't do that when your listening to bluetooth or iPod. One other thing I don't like is that when my iPhone is connected to the connecter and I when I click on iPod, the screen doesn't have a tab for songs, it's just playlists, artists, etc. and so you have to use the left and right arrows to change songs. I don't mind since there's A2DP :) I also tried playing a movie today before I went to work and when I placed the CD inside, it would only go in 90% of the way and start spinning slowly and eject it right back out. I guess I gotta send it back to be replaced.... >:\

I know this thread is kind of old, but I figured I would just post in here instead of starting a new thread. First post, btw, and first Nissan. Got it yesterday.

In the item description, it says this unit has USB connectivity, but I don't see any USB ports. Is this the kind of thing where I would have to route a USB connector to where I wanted it to be (inside the armrest/cupholder/etc)? Or am I just not seeing it?

I have also been looking at this for a bit. The pictures I see the usb ports are in the back, a cable coming out with 2 usb connectors, and you need to run them to where you want. Any updates on this would be awesome as I'm getting a little bored with my stock stereo.

I've got one...I've had it for a year and have both iGO and Primo running on it and they run just fine. They're great little units.

This GPS set is the most OEM like option that currently available. I've always found it best to simply purchase the vehicle variant that has all the tech gadgets that one desires. :biggrin:

Rosen is slightly different. They can only use a 4gb card.

This might be a little late.

I just bought this head unit for my 2009 Altima coupe off Ebay.
I have it all plugged in but for some reason the radio and left drivers side speaker does not work for me.

Jeffreey916, can you please tell me how you've wired the head unit? Did you have to connect any additional wires?
Theres 4 plugs in total from the car and i was only able to plug in 2. One for the air conditioning controls and the other for the harness.

Thanks your help means a lot.
